COMMISSIONING THE ALPIMATIC CAPACITOR BANK

A - BEFORE APPLYING POWER
Check the protective device settings and the power cable connections (page 26).
Check the C.T is located on phase L1 of the main installation, upline from all receivers to be
compensated and the capacitor bank (see diagram 3 below)

Ventilation
Install the capacitor bank in electrical room properly ventilated
* temperature maxi: 40° C and average over 24 h : 35°C
Ventilation of the capacitor bank is made by an airflow
* entry by the bottom (ventilation area on front door and back - sides)
* output by the top:
Capacitor bank without detuned reactors: ventilation area on front door and back – sides
Capacitor bank with detuned reactors: extracting fans
Make sure these ventilation areas have a clearance distance at least 100mm from any obstacle (wall,
electrical enclosure...
Make the airflow is sufficient by removing any obstacle from air input and output
Make sure the capacitor bank is installed in a dry and non dusty electrical room
IMPORTANT: NON REPSECT OF THOSE VENTILATION RULES WILL CONDUCT TO A
CANCELLATION OF THE CAPACITOR BANK WARRANTY
B - APPLY POWER
